GOLETA, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Commerce Planet, Inc. (OTCBB:CPNE
- News) today provided an
update on the Company’s stock repurchase program. As
of today, the Company has repurchased a total of 4,336,000 shares of its Common
Stock since the beginning of the repurchase program in November 2006, which
represents 8.74% of the number of shares of its Common Stock outstanding before
the repurchase program was instituted. After the Company successfully retires
all of the shares it has repurchased to date, the total number of issued and
outstanding Company Common Stock will be 45,301,252.
“The stock repurchase reflects the Board’s
confidence in Commerce Planet’s market opportunity
and strategy, and what the Board continues to believe to be the
undervaluation of the Company’s stock at current
levels,” said Tony Roth, CEO of Commerce Planet.
“We believe in the value proposition of our
products and services, and we consider our stock to be a strong investment
opportunity and a good use of our cash resources. In addition to augmenting
our product and service offerings, we believe the repurchase of the Company’s
stock from time to time has the ability to provide meaningful benefit to our
long-term shareholders.”
